    I must have misread it. I didn't realize the kettle bell rows were supposed to be two arm simultaneous.

          Good workout and great pump today. Think I ate my protein cake a little too close to the workout and it sat in my gut but I pulled it off lol. Think I could have gone a bit heavier on some of the tri movements but my elbow was being slightly fussy and I didn't want to push it too hard.

              Good workout today. The challenge set of squats destroyed my lower back and it was tight as crap. It was supposed to be a set of 8-8-failure but it was so tight and painful I did the best I could. I was still very happy I actually was able to squat fairly heavy today.



              10 min treadmill warm up/ rumble roll/ stretch/ air squats/ leg ext warm ups x 3



              Lying leg curls (these called for a partner do give extra resistance on the negative portion of the lift... Didn't have one so I did slow negatives and ISO holds on all working sets)

              4 x warm ups

              140 x 8/ 15 sec ISO hold

              150 x 8/ 15 "

              135 x 10

              185 x 8

              225 x 8

              Leg presses

              1 x warm up

              5 pps x 10 x 5



              Next exercise was supposed to be straight legs but my low back was so locked up I rested and rolled a bit and knocked out some abd/ adds.

              Hip adductor

              2 x warm ups

              150 x 15 x 3



              Hip abductor

              2 x warm ups

              150 x 15 x 3



              Straight leg deadlifts (left my wrist straps at home so couldn't go real heavy but I'm sure my low back was happy about that)

              1 x warm up

              185 x 10

              225 x 10

                  They have definitely grown a bit. Hopefully we will see a big improvement on stage next year. Whats cool is I can still see the cross striations in my tear drops.

                    eh that's not really cool because you already had that this time. we need to see something different now haha. like more hanging hock, sweepy sweeps and gapping gastrocs. maybe even get them up there as big as mine with your detail

                          Don't know what's wrong with me today but I feel like I got hit by a fricking freight train when I woke up this morning. Everyone of my joints is aching and so is my skin. So far I'm not sick but I definitely felt off today. Those one arm barbell rows were brutal today but I gutted it out and made it through the work out.
